Up the West Coast

Yesterday was the last official day of the school holidays (not counting weekends). I accompanied my sister, a few of her children, a young visitor from Holland and two extra little nephews to the West Coast National Park, about an hour and a half out of Cape Town. This is the old homestead of Geelbek, absolutely riddled with history, where we had a late afternoon "lunch". You can see children playing on the wall of the old Cape Dutch farmstead.(Birders - this is a wonderful place to see waders, but don't bring unruly nephews with you!)
